Fraser Range - Symons Hill Nickel-Copper Project Exploration Update
ASX Announcement & Media Release
ASX Code: BOA
-
Aboriginal heritage survey completed and a drilling program to test high priority geophysical targets located 4 to 9km from the Nova-Bollinger nickel-copper mine to commence in early October 2016.
-
Drilling contractor engaged to undertake a program of up to 6,000m of aircore drilling across seven priority targets derived from the recently completed high resolution gravity survey and other proprietary datasets including aeromagnetic and VTEM surveys.

Boadicea Resources Ltd (ASX: BOA) is pleased to announce that the required Aboriginal heritage survey over the priority geophysical targets at the Symons Hill Project (E28/1932) at Fraser Range, located 4km from the Nova-Bollinger nickel mine, has been successfully completed and a drilling contractor has been engaged with a start date, subject to weather, of early October 2016.

A total of seven priority targets located 4 to 9km along geological strike to the northeast of Nova-Bollinger have been selected for drill testing by the Company’s geophysical consultants utilising the Company’s proprietary gravity, aeromagnetic and electromagnetic datasets (Figure 1).

The basis of the upcoming drilling program is that the prospective maficultramafic host rocks for magmatic nickel-copper mineralisation like NovaBollinger are far denser than the enclosing metamorphic rocks. These prospective rocks therefore may be detected geophysically using high resolution gravity surveys where the mafic – ultramafic rocks are expected to be seen as gravity high anomalies. The planned drilling program will involve a series of aircore holes drilled to allow the geological identification of bedrock geology and the collection of geochemical samples for analysis of nickel & copper as well as other “pathfinder” elements which may indicate fertile

mafic-ultramafic geology warranting additional deeper drilling or other investigations.
Once commenced, the drilling program is expected to take approximately 3 weeks to complete with the results available 3-4 weeks after that.
The Company will make a further announcement once drilling has commenced.
